Description:
This dataset includes variables measuring war threat perception, candidate security evaluation, party identification, unification�Vindependence stance, and presidential vote choice in Taiwan��s 2024 election.
Weight Variable:
W = Survey weight (to be used in weighted analyses).
This dataset contains N = 743 participants, and the analyses reported in the thesis were conducted using the full sample of these 743 participants. In the final accepted version of the manuscript, the sample size was mistakenly reported as 724 because the dataset includes a weighting variable W. When SPSS was used to produce descriptive statistics for the demographic variables, SPSS output the weighted demographic results, which led to the erroneous sample size being recorded as 724. However, this does not affect the study results obtained using N = 743.?
